Presenter Profile How they describe themselves: HelloWallet is a provider of independent, technology-based wealth-boosting services to employees of Fortune 500 companies and other large institutions.

Over an average of 3 months, we have achieved take-up rates 5x those of existing financial advice providers, found an average of $1,200 in savings for our members, and increased net wealth by $2,135, an equivalent of a 3% raise.

Using multi-imputation simulation technology, a stochastic optimization model, and research-informed behavioral strategies, HelloWallet provides its members with individualized, practical guidance to drive up savings and reduce debt. We will also showcase our data visualization technology that enables members to view their entire financial future, including important milestones, net wealth at different life-stages, and the future values of all of their assets and liabilities.
